A dell story

Order a new DELL XPS on Friday, arrived TODAY. Wonderful says I, what

XP Home installed.

Ran an upgrade to XP PRO and got a core dump.

You cant do that says some guy, you need to buy a proper OEM XP Pro CD from
Dell for £181 UK

Crap!

I fixed the problem myself and upgraded. No USB Support following the
upgrade.
